A digital artwork inspired by the Biblical verse 2 Corinthians 10:8. It reads 'For though I should boast somewhat more of our authority, which the Lord hath given us for edification, and not for your destruction, I should not be ashamed.' The scene represents edification and authority symbolically- a pair of strong, powerful hands (signifying 'authority') gently shaping a structure or building from clay or stone (signifying 'edification'). The colors are primarily warm and uplifting, echoing the constructive, positive interpretation of authority in the verse. Please do not include any text in the image.
